how do you feel about people who like to regularly post spoilers?

[brainhulk]

I have a friend who likes to read forums that posts spoilers. Then he texts me the spoiler. At first I thought he just liked to irritate me. Then, it just dawned on me he is just a dumbass that has no filter over the words that come out his head. He was always like that I suppose.

What do you guys think?

Why the fuck did I just mouse over that. I haven't seen it yet and it's old enough that people who haven't come of age can still have it spoiled.

Fuck you!

Same thing I think about those Youtubers who make videos of doing mean things to strangers.

the word "tool" is probably the perfect word for those people.

He would no longer be my friend if he texted me spoilers

i think it's annoying and in some cases it can ruin the whole story. personal example for me is watching citizen kane after reading a spoiler about what rosebud is. there was no anticipation for me although it's possible the movie was just too dated for my liking.

supposedly these guys think spoilers don't really spoil anything.

If

they

Spoiler

use spoiler tags it only bothers me a little. After all that is what the tags

are

Spoiler

for. On the other hand, my curiosity often gets the best of me and I end up peeking anyway. While that is annoying, I have to accept that it is my own fault for peeking behind something clearly labeled as a spoiler. It does mean that we all have to be careful about how we use the spoiler tags because if we start to regularly put things that are NOT spoilers behind that tag then it will just lead to a bastardization of what the spoiler tag is all about. This is the worst in TV threads as I might have watched the most recent episode but others have knowledge from the book or from other shows (like the Talking Dead) which I don't watch. So if they are putting things from the most recent episode into spoiler tags, but other people are putting information from these other sources into spoiler tags then the entire point of the tags is lost, and I obviously want to talk about the recent episode, that is why I came into the thread, but I don't want to learn about things coming in future episodes which I have not watched yet. It is still better then the

assholes

Spoiler

who just put the spoilers in the thread with out any tags at all.

Putting information from the most current episode into spoiler tags would also lead to the problem of half the thread ending up being put behind spoiler tags since we are the most interested in talking about a show soon after an episode has aired, and no one is going to go back and remove those tags after the next episode airs.go back and remove those tags after the next episode airs.
